x-apis-json
`x-apis-json` appears in the info block and at the root of the document. Its value is a structured object. Used by 3 providers across 3 OpenAPI documents. Consistent with data & schema semantics — this is inferred from where the key appears and what it carries, not from any published definition.

Why this is not in OpenAPI
Extensions exist because a provider needed something the specification would not carry. Most of what they hold is not the API contract at all — it is operational metadata about the contract: documentation, lifecycle, policy, provenance, and now agents. That metadata is usually better placed alongside the contract, in an Overlay or an APIs.json index, than crammed inside it. See everything else doing the data & schema semantics job.
